I had an extremely religious teacher in secondary school. He had a habit of threatening other staff, tradesmen, drivers in front of his pupils with "I know taekwando", then relising what he'd just done and repenting/distracting with "let us pray". One morning we came into the classroom to find him in a huddle with his union rep. Turned out he'd spent the night in jail after being arrested affray (fighting).
For almost all religious people their faith provides guidance and comfort, but you don't want to encourage the nuts.
I feel like faith provides a disproportionate of comfort compared to guidance. People take the parts of religion they agree with, and discard the rest. I actually think this is good practice, but it becomes an issue when they use the affirmation of the broader religion to justify their actions.
A moral compass is something you have to find for yourself, and acknowledge that it is not backed up or justified by any other entity than yourself.
For me, I’ve found a good starting point is the TST tenets. Compared to the 10 commandments, they are much more broad. I can use them as a lens to analyze a variety of different situations and organize my thoughts and feelings.
But that doesn’t mean that I use TST to justify my actions, the tenets are my tools of introspection. Heck, the 7th tenet even acknowledges that the tenets are only guiding principles and seems to encourage finding your own morals.
Is the satanic temple something people just know when they see TST? Are their tenets common knowledge?
Maybe I'm living under a rock here, but your comment is hard to decipher without any links or explanation. Yes I found out what you were talking about by googling it, but your comment doesn't help much if people need to Google it. 9 times out of 10 people just ignore it and move past it.
